10.A SLIGHT ISSUE
Daphne
“Fuck, Daph, slow down.”
I was a woman crazed. After falling asleep yet again before Cal could get to bed, I felt I owed himsomething. He took care of me nonstop. Why wouldn’t I do the same for him?
I looked at him from where I knelt. “You don’t want this?”
“Oh, God, I do. But damn it, woman, all I did was make you tea!”
If he didn’t get up at the asscrack, I could have woken him up like this, but the idea of going down on him in the kitchen still pleased me to no end. It was dirty, unexpected, and good all at the same time.
With no further protest, I went to work, taking his head in my mouth while I worked his shaft with my right hand. I bobbed slowly, focusing my efforts on the tip of his cock as I worked.
“Fuuuuuck,” he groaned. “Daph, all I want… oh God.”
“What?” I murmured using my tongue to lick the head of his cock.
“I just… fuck… I don’t deserve you is all.”
But he did. So, I ignored his half-hearted protests, taking him in—this time deeper. He dug his hands deep into my hair as Ibobbed, enveloping Cal’s cock with my mouth. I only did this for him. He was the only one I trusted not to force me or take advantage of my willingness.
“God, I love you,” Cal moaned. “You are… so fucking good. Oh, fuck!”
He was so close. I ignored the sound of both our phones vibrating on the marble kitchen island to my left. Messages could fucking wait.
“I’m gonna cum, if?—”
I didn’t stop. I wanted him to. He always tried to warn me. It was another way he took care of me. It only made me love him more. I took deep and swallowed as he came hard, gripping my hair for dear life.
“God damn, Daph,” Cal panted as I pulled back. “Jesus, woman!”
I wiped my mouth with my hand.
Cal pulled my chin up towards him. “You’re so gorgeous woman. And when you take it so good? I can’t help myself.”
“I know,” I stood back up, returning to my tea.
“What got into you?”
“I’ve been so horny and you’ve been so good to me. I wanted to return the favor.”
“I know that’s probably complicated, so full disclosure I’d never ask?—”
“It actually doesn’t worry me, Cal,” I said. “You are so safe. It’s one thing I’ve taken solace in this entire time. I never thought I’d ever feel so comfortable with anyone. I love you Cal. That is the honest-to-God truth. I swore I’d never remarry, but… you made the decision so easy.”
He kissed me slowly. “I didn’t think it’d ever happen for me, Daph, but I couldn’t imagine it any other way.”
It couldn’t hold back. I loved this man to the ends of the earth and back. I brushed his face. “Thank you for loving me—loving us—like this.”
He rubbed my stomach. “It’s what you deserve, Daphne—both of you.” After a long forehead kiss that melted me once more, he turned to his phone. “Uh, Daph, the results are back.”
That was the vibration I’d heard earlier.
